Legal Question in Tax Law in New York

I'm 20 years old, and the state of NY has a six figure tax lean against my parents. I had a joint bank account with my mother as this was required as I'm under 21, but it's not a custodial account. The state of NY took my $45,000 from the account, which I legally earned, and can prove. Is there any possibility of me getting this back? What are my options? I do not owe, and never have owed anyone any money.
